A long-time favourite amongst locals and tourist, charming little red house next to the sea (Tripadvicer winner in 2014). Head here for coffee and a cinnamon roll. Open until late and thus a great place to enjoy the sunset.

Getting Around

Apollonkatu tram stop - you can take either tram 2 or 8. An easy and inexpensive sightseeing tour in Helsinki can be done by tram 2 and 3. The route passes many of the interesting sights. The entire route of trams 2 and 3 is a number-8 shaped loop so you can leave from Apollonkatu and eventually you will get back to where you started. That the tram changes the number half way, but you don't need to worry about that.
